My $15 print sale that is:www.bellavendetta.etsy.com Look, even the SF Weekly says you should hop to it. I only have a few left of each print, after that they are gone!
I will however, have a super-duper limited edition 11x14" gilcee print of this...
issued by Mahan Gallery early this summer. I won't be advertising or selling it on any websites, only my email list, so hit me up if you want to be notified about it: arabella(at)elephantstonerecords.com
Thanx!
]]>Wow, now that the whole holiday season is over, I feel like I'm back to normal and not all punchy and stabby.
I totally skipped Christmas and all that stuff this year; I even refused to send out cards. Now suddenly I want to do cards and the whole shebang. I guess it will have to wait until Talk Like A Pirate Day. I didn't do gift stuff with the hubby either, but now I think these mugs would be perfect for him, especially the Don't Provoke Me one.
In other news, I'm probably the last gal on earth to finally open an Etsy shop: BellaVendetta.etsy.com
This is where you can get some nice prints of my work when you can't afford the actual paintings. Support the arts, and help me restock my bar!
I also did another installment of musical inspirations for Vain Zine where I talk about Seven Percent Solution and Billy Nicholls. I'm no music reviewer (though hey, have you read the crap on Pitchfork?), but I think I got the point across; at least I know my music history and do my research. Doing music reviews is way easier than art reviews I would think. I can't even talk about my own art; let alone try to talk about anyone else's. I hate it when people ask what I thought about an exhibit, as if because I'm an artist too, I must have something really great and insightful to say. I do know my art history, but they are probably disappointed when I just say stuff like,
"dude, this blows" "this is freakin' awesome!" "Ooooh pretty"and "Meh, I'm done can we leave now?"
I can however, talk about Hollywood film history and Jem and the Holograms in great detail for hours. Or rather, that's what I prefer to talk about with a martini in hand.
So my usual "save some endangered art" Monday is a little different today. This week I'm offering a variety of prints from my punk/goth/Elizabethan/mannerist series for $3.00 a pop. And since I have 3 of each image available, you can grab more than one if you want, so they don't get lonely. These were a test run of prints from a while back, the image size is only 7 inches high on 8.5x11 inch paper, and the actual paintings have changed a bit since these were made -- I have a habit of going back and "adjusting" my artwork. Guess that sorta makes them collector items, right?
For the cheapskates out there, this week it is $3 instead of $1 for a variety of reasons: these are heavy stock glossy prints that come all fancy in a plastic pouch, hence they cost more to mail, but mostly because stamps and envelopes cost this girl money if you can feel me. But hey, it is still cheaper than a large coffee concoction at Starbucks.
So hit me up as to your choice(s): arabella@elephantstonerecords.com
Thanks everyone!
